8th Grade ELA

Homework and other grading policies can be found in the 8th Grade Syllabus.
Major assignments that are not turned in on the day they are due, will lose a full letter grade for every day they are late. After five days, students will only be able to earn 50% of their actual grade for the assignment.

Students with IEP's and 504's are the exception to the policy.
